Within the realm of cinema, experimental film is often misunderstood. Join us for an educational screening and discussion hosted by Dan Herbert, Assistant Professor in the UM Department of Screen Arts and Cultures. Several challenging, short experimental films from this year’s Ann Arbor Film Festival will be presented and screened by participating panelists, followed by discussion with the audience.

The 49th Ann Arbor Film Festival takes place March 22–27. For more information on North America’s longest-running independent and experimental film festival, please visit www.aafilmfest.org.

This program is free and open to the public.

Co-presented by UM Screen Arts and Cultures and the University of Michigan Museum of Art.

The supple, sensual environment features a video synthesis of photographic imaging and choreography projected onto a multilayered, membrane-like structure, providing a luminous web for visitors to explore.
